The inward radially hollow structure TiN particles (IRHTiNs) was designed and synthesized by using the hard-template method and combined with sulfur (S) to prepare lithium-sulfur batteries (LSB) cathodes. Subsequently, the structure and composition of IRHTiNs and IRHTiNs/S composite cathodes were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). In the electrochemical test process, compared with the C cathodes, LSB using the IRHTiNs cathodes exhibited a high original specific capacity of 1 256 mAh·g^-1, the capacity fading rate was significantly reduced, and the LSB performance was significantly improved.
